CCA

Programme Overview

PHPPS school-based Co-curricular activities (CCAs) aims to engage students through various platforms and activities for the development of their well-being, character and leadership. We want to provide opportunities for students to access to a range of activities through our PE programme, modular CCAs as well as CCAs that are conducted out of curriculum hours so that they can develop their interest and thereafter, pursue this interest and nurture their talent in it. Through our PE and CCA curriculum, we hope that students will acquire the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values towards the pursuit of a lifelong physically active and healthy lifestyle.

The school adopts the X3 approach of eXposure , eXtension and eXcellence (see diagram below) to provide students with different levels of participation opportunities and nurture those who demonstrate strengths in certain areas to reach their peaks of excellence.

At the eXposure stage, the co-core curriculum is conducted within curriculum time as part of their Art, Music, PE, Health Education, Social Studies, Civics and Moral Education and CVE (Christian values education) lessons as well as Assembly. At the eXtension stage, modular CCAs are conducted on a weekly basis for 1.5 hours during curriculum time for the morning session or as post-exam activities. Modular CCAs are also offered to the P1 and P2 students during school hours once a week on Wednesdays. The modular CCAs are introduced as an extension to meet students' needs and interests and to allow students to discover their talents for further development. Students can also take a step further by joining CCAs that are conducted out of curriculum hours. At the eXcellence stage, students with talents in specific area are further developed through intensive training and participation in competitions.
